Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coffee machine in particular to a fully automatic coffee machine with a removable drip tray, a filtration device arranged in the drip tray upstream of a drain device detachably connected to the drip tray of the coffee machine.
  • An automatic coffee machine is a device for the personal and commercial use in which all steps of the coffee preparation cycle occur automatically, especially grinding coffee beans, introduction the ground coffee into the heating chamber, brewing and serving the beverage and also removing the waste water and small particles of coffee automatically by the drainage pipe to the sewage system e.g. sewage installation in a kitchen.
  • the typical coffee machine has a drip tray located at the bottom of the machine and adapted to collect the dripping liquid - water or beverage generated during the brewing process during normal use. The drip tray can be emptied and rinsed by the user.
  • the frequency of this simple hygiene maintenance depends on the use and rest time of the machine but should be carried out frequently enough to avoid bad smells and organic growth.
  • the drip tray is removable for emptying and cleaning manually in comfortable and simple manner or it can be connected with the sewage system, so the waste disposal is performed by the gravity by a drainage pipe outside the machine.
  • the drip tray has a considerable volume therefore can contain additional parts inside such as screening elements increasing the non-clogging time of the drainage system.
  • an automatic beverage machine comprises an equipment unit with a removable drip tray, and is fixed on a receiving device on the equipment unit during a normal operation.
  • the receiving device is arranged in a mounting cavity of the equipment unit.
  • a check valve of a valve plate is arranged in the drip tray. The check valve forms a sealing at a valve seat during removed drip tray condition.
  • the document US5395515 A discloses a tray assembly for use in receiving and retaining used moist brewing substances and the like from a beverage brewing apparatus and separating a liquid portion therefrom.
  • the tray assembly is in communication with an entry port which deposits moist brewing substances therein.
  • a drain line in the brewing apparatus carries separated liquids away from said tray assembly.
  • the tray assembly includes a tray body, a liquid separation portion retained in said tray body for drawing off liquids from moist brewing substances, and a controllably sealable tray valve assembly attached to the tray body and operatively engaging the drain line for draining liquids from the tray assembly.
  • a first area in the tray body between the entry port and the liquid separation portion communicates with the entry port and defines a receiving and retaining space.
  • a second area in the tray body between the liquid separating portion and the valve assembly communicates with the tray valve assembly and defines a liquid collection space. Drained brewing substance is retained in the receiving and retaining space for removal at a later time. Liquid drawn off of the brewing substance into the liquid collection space flows from the tray assembly out through the tray valve assembly when engaged with the drain line.
  • the document DE102015208212 B3 discloses a beverage dispenser with a removable drip tray, a screening device arranged in the drip tray upstream of a drainage device and a drainage and / or drainage container. According to the invention, at least one partial region of an active surface of the screening device can be arranged in an outlet region of the expansion and/or drainage container. This ensures, in particular long, no-clogging operation without additional cleaning components and thus improves the cleaning effort with simple handling by means of a cost-effective solution.
  • the document EP3398488 A1 discloses a fully automatic coffee machine having a water tank, a pump, a brewing unit, a heater, a steam relief unit and a drainage system where a drip tray is equipped with a multi-function element, whereas the multi-function element contains a steam guiding part and a strainer part where said multi-function element is detachably connected to the drip tray of the coffee machine.
